About Highlife
Highlife Generation develops, owns and operates its communities for the long term, with every decision focused on creating better places to live – not simply delivering a project.
More Than Buildings
Creating Better Places to Live
Highlife Generation was created with a simple belief, professionally managed rental communities can offer a better way to live.
We combine thoughtful design, sustainable technology and long-term ownership to create homes that residents are proud to call home.
Our Vision
Building Communities, Not Just Apartments
Traditional apartment developments are often designed to be sold.
Highlife Generation has taken a different approach.
Highlife Morningside has been purpose-built as a professionally managed co-living community, designed to remain under long-term ownership and continually improve over time.
Because when you’re planning to own and operate a community for decades, every decision changes.
Materials are selected for durability.
Shared spaces are designed to bring people together.
Technology is chosen for long-term performance rather than short-term cost.
Professional management isn’t an afterthought – it’s part of the original vision.
We believe this creates a better experience for residents and a more sustainable future for urban living.
Our Difference

Designed to own and operate

Meet the Founders
George and Judy Jorgensen
Highlife Generation is led by George and Judy Jorgensen, whose combined experience spans more than four decades of residential property development, investment and long-term asset ownership.
George’s career has included senior development roles with Meriton Properties and Dawes Australia, delivering projects ranging from boutique residential communities to large-scale commercial and mixed-use developments.
Judy has built an extensive residential property investment portfolio and has long championed the value of creating homes designed for long-term ownership rather than short-term returns.
Together they established Highlife Generation to create communities that combine thoughtful design, sustainability and professional management.
Highlife Morningside represents the first expression of that vision.
Most developers build to sell. We build to own
Highlife Generation develops, owns and operates its communities for the long term. That means every design decision, every sustainability investment and every resident experience is made with decades of ownership in mind, not a project handover.
